Effective Outreach

The menu is set, the band has practiced, the speaker is booked. All that’s left is getting people in the door. That's where social media outreach starts.

One reason why we’ve failed to reach this younger generation of people has to do with the way we communicate about who we are and what we believe. I'm talking about text messaging.

People never tire of hearing an origin story - what turned someone’s life around, turned them away from drugs or alcohol, or changed the direction of their life.

You were born for THIS generation. For this moment. And there has never been a greater time to be involved in the ministry of sharing Christ and his Kingdom values with the world around you.

There’s a new, and important, word: “phygital.” It reflects the growing necessity for the seamless flow between the physical and the digital.
